Written Reply to Parliamentary Question on the Increasing Number of Car-lite HDB Estates Beyond Gazetted Areas

Mr Abdul Muhaimin Abdul Malik asked the Acting Minister for Transport whether the Government plans to increase the number of car-lite HDB estates beyond the currently gazetted areas.

Reply by Acting Minister for Transport Jeffrey Siow: 

1.     Since 2019, LTA has gazetted 16 car-lite areas including several public housing estates, such as Tengah, Bayshore and Ulu Pandan. Agencies will continue to assess land use and transport plans and consider the presence of nearby amenities when planning car-lite areas.
